Miller@redsteeze "She has the same problem Biden had but for different reasons and they know it, which is they have to put her out there more, but can't put her out there more", Quote Kyle Smith@rkylesmith  "A couple more polls like this one and Dem insiders are gonna start turning up in Politico saying “maybe we shoulda had an actual primary instead of a coronation?” Then the inevitable “staffers are being fired” story." Althouse, "A near majority of voters say Mr. Trump is 'not too far' to the left or right on the issues, while only around one-third say he’s 'too far to the right.'" ""Nearly half of voters, in contrast, say Ms. Harris is too far to the left; only 41 percent say she’s 'not too far either way.' This is one of Mr. Trump’s overlooked advantages. . . Writes Nate Cohn in "New Poll Suggests Harris’s Support Has Stalled After a Euphoric August," and "In February 2023, the New York Times published an article titled, 'Kamala Harris Is Trying to Define Her Vice Presidency.

John Kass is looking forward to The Thunderdome Debate "She’ll go for the face and for the throat. The media will support and shield her. If she survives, yet makes a fool of herself with her trademark word salads and mentally wanders all over the place as she did in her disastrous CNN interview, the media I mentioned will proclaim her the winner. They’ll cheer her name and recast her as Obama 2.0. We’ll be washed with Democrat feelings. We’ll be required to “feel the joy.”" At WaEx, ‘Happy’ Trump, composed Harris: How advisers want their candidate to act in Tuesday’s debate.

Jazz Shaw at Hat Hair sees Kamala's Latest Flip-Flop. Plastic Straw Ban. Twitchy notes even Dana Bash finds Kamala 'EVASIVE' --> Dana Bash Gives DAMNINGLY Honest Review of Her Kamala/Tim Walz Interview and WOW (Watch). From Real Clear Defense, What is the Kamala Harris Doctrine? "Based on her brief remarks about foreign policy in her acceptance speech, we know Harris favors a Palestinian state (“self-determination” for the Palestinian people) and a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, i.e., Israel stopping its offensive in Gaza. We know she favors continuing to provide military aid to Ukraine. She said nothing about Taiwan, and next to nothing about China. The latter is a glaring omission because the U.S. and China, as Niall Ferguson and others have explained, are waging Cold War II against each other."
